What to do if my Husqvarna Construction Equipment engine does not start?

  Dr. Cathy Vaughan MDSep 12, 2025
  If the engine of your Husqvarna construction equipment doesn't start, verify that there is fuel in the tank and that it is the correct type, without water. Ensure the fuel valve and the ON/OFF switch are in the "ON" position. Check the spark plug cable connection. For a flooded engine, adjust the choke. When starting cold, ensure the choke is in the "ON" position. Also, check the oil level, as a low level can stop the engine. Make sure the air filter isn't dirty or clogged, and confirm the blade shaft rotates freely, without concrete buildup in the blade block.

  If your Husqvarna Saw engine won't start, consider the following: * Verify there's fuel in the tank, and it's the correct type, free of water. * Ensure the fuel valve and kill switch are in the 'on' position. * Confirm the spark plug wire is connected. * If flooded, adjust the choke as per the engine manual. * For cold starts, check the choke position (refer to the engine manual). * Check the engine oil level, as a low level might trigger the oil alert system. * Inspect the air filter for dirt or blockages. * Ensure the blade shaft rotates freely, clear of concrete buildup.

How to fix a Husqvarna SOFF-CUT 150 Saw that is spalling and ravelling cut?

  Joshua JacobsAug 26, 2025
  If your Husqvarna Saw is spalling and ravelling the cut, check the diamond blade for wear, glazing, warping, or damage. Ensure the skid plate moves freely and isn't excessively worn, twisted, or bent. Also, check for metal burrs on the skid plate's bottom. Make sure the lexan covers move freely, there's spring pressure on the skid plate, and the engine runs at full throttle. Check the belt tension, ensure the blade is correctly mounted, and use the correct blade specification. Keep the slab clean, use joint protectors, and clean concrete debris from the blade block. Finally, check the scrapers and blade block shafts for damage.

  Michael ChavezAug 27, 2025
  If your Husqvarna Saw engine runs rough, backfires, or can't reach full speed, try these steps: * Ensure there is sufficient, correct fuel without water. * Check the engine oil level, as the oil alert system may function intermittently if the level is incorrect. * Make sure the air filter is clean and not blocked. * Verify the spark plug is clean and properly gapped. * Confirm the throttle lever is correctly set. * For cold starts, check the choke position (refer to the engine manual). * Note that low oil levels may prevent the engine from reaching full speed due to the oil alert system.

  If your Husqvarna Saw pulls to one side while sawing, make sure the front guide is aligned with the diamond blade's center. Check the diamond blade for wear, glazing, warping, or damage. Avoid twisting the saw and instead make gradual pressure changes. Ensure all wheels roll freely and smoothly. Do not force the saw, and check the skid plate for damage or burrs.

  If your Husqvarna Saw engine runs rough, backfires, or can't reach full speed, begin by checking the fuel. Ensure there's enough of the correct fuel and no water. Next, verify the oil level is adequate. Inspect the air cleaner to ensure it's clean. Also, check the spark plug for cleanliness and proper gapping. Confirm the throttle lever is correctly set and adjust the choke as needed, referring to the engine manual.

Why is my Husqvarna Construction Equipment making bevel cuts?
- B
  Brian SmithSep 7, 2025
  If your Husqvarna Construction Equipment (Soff-Cut 150D) is producing bevel or radius cuts, consider these points: Verify the cutting blade isn't worn or damaged. Ensure the guide wheels move smoothly. Allow the blade to cut at its correct speed without forcing it. Align guide wheels in existing cuts before starting, and ensure these cuts are clean. Confirm the Lexan™ cover moves freely and spring pressure is correct. Avoid twisting during cuts; control the blade gradually. Check the engine operates correctly, belt tension is correct, and the blade is assembled correctly with clean flanges. Keep the concrete surface clean. Clean the blade block assembly and ensure scrapers and blade block shafts move freely. Try making a new cut from the opposite direction.
